Alun Davies
Chartered Accountant & business adviser
About me
Hi, I’m Alun and I'm a Chartered Accountant, financial consultant and business adviser.
I worked for investment banks and consultancies in London before leaving the City to set up on my own, over 12 years ago.
​
​Now I share my corporate knowledge with business owners, helping them to scale and sell as quickly and smoothly as possible.
I've worked for:
When I'm not in the office...
I live in Northamptonshire with my family and spend my time running, singing, talking about rugby, being mediocre at golf and looking forward to my next skiing holiday.
I’m often described by people as the least accountant-like accountant they know – which I always take as a compliment.
I’m calm in a crisis and get a real kick out of solving problems others have struggled with. Above all, I have a genuine interest in people and enjoy good conversation (especially over a pint).
You could describe me as a financial wingman
​If you're a successful business owner, you'll be an expert in whatever you do business in. ​But this probably isn't finance.
The bigger your business grows, the more this knowledge gap could be holding you back. ​​That's where I can help.
I’m also like a consultant CFO
Most small to medium sized businesses can’t attract or afford a full-time Chief Financial Officer.
I bring this level of experience to your business as an adviser. With a focus on helping you to scale, sell and successfully exit.
I’ve worked with over 100 owner-managed businesses
​I work with business owners like you every day, so I know the growth challenges you face inside out. And what to do about them.
It also means I have a broad knowledge of best practice for other businesses of your size.
I’m not just a theorist
It’s easy to advise, but harder to actually do.
​
When I left the City I had no clients, a rapidly decreasing bank balance, and a young family to feed. So, I know what it’s like to be in your shoes and put my money where my mouth is.
Alun's insight has completely shaped the direction of my business. When you talk to him, you quickly realise why you need his help
